Abstract

A method for gain correcting a gamma ray spectrum includes acquiring a gamma ray spectrum including gamma ray counts distributed into a plurality of energy channels, evaluating the acquired gamma ray spectrum to determine an energy of a calibration feature therein, comparing the energy of the calibration feature in the acquired spectrum to a standard spectral energy to determine a deviation between the energy of the calibration feature and the standard spectral energy, and adjusting the acquired spectrum so that the energy of the calibration feature is equal to the standard spectral energy to obtain a gain calibrated spectrum.
